PRESIDENTIAL UNDERwEA r

A Glimpse at the White House
Clothes Line ON Wash Day.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, June 16.-Monday is
wash day at the presidents house in
Washington, the same as in other less
pretentiOuS mansions throughout the
United States, and visitors to the execu-
tive on this day usually have their
OlfactorieS filled with the odor of soap
SudS from the Subterranean apartments.
Several Southern mammies are the pre-
siding genii of this part of the presi-
dents house, and from the broad,
Ragged sidewalk leading up-paSt the
north front OF the building a glimpse
can be obtained through the open win
dowS in the basement of clotheS-;being
wrung out preparatory for display on
the lines to dry. Southwest of the man
sion thereis. a small piece of ground
about twenty-five feet long and twenty
feet wide, situated between the glass
houses used for raising camelias and
roses, where the presidential line is
aired. 1t is not usually visible to the
promenader through the grounds, but
occasionally a strong wind will
cause shirt or other piece of wearing
apparel to tlutter outside the limits of
the enclosure, and naturally this at
tracts attention. Such was the case one
Monday morning recently as a repre-
sentative of the GLOBE was on scout
ing expedition through the presidents
grounds, when suddenly one leg of
pair of unmentionableS, with strings
attached to the lower portion, was
blown outward by a puff of wind. There

The heart that sung, the lipS that moved in
prayer,
Glad songs that made life beautiful and
bright,
Thanksgiving for the love that made earth
fair,

Take all my blessings, all save this-the
best!'
prayed and slept, and when the morning
broke
The sun rose. but it shone no more for me;
The flowers were dead that bioomed but yes
ternoOn,
And birds sang lonesome songs from every
tree,
OF wintry skies above an empty nest;
Only friends voice whispered, '1t is best 7"
1t cannot be for me; some other life
May perfect grow, because of all my pain !;
Some other flowers may bloom where mine
have died,
Born i'll the night and fed By bitter rain;
And watching angels. fair, serene and blest,
Seeing His face, may know that it is best.
But I am dumb, Lord in all my woe
/ cannot even weep my lost delight;
Out of the realms of songs and sunlit skies
| wander onward, through the lonely night;
drink Thy cup, that to my lips is pressed.
The wine is bitter. Can say ''Tis best?"
Thy dust and ashes crown my Bonded head,
Thy sackcloth binds me like a winding
sheet,
Thy thorny PATH cannot see the end
l walk with naked, bleeding. faltering feet
l lneel, o Lord my every sin confessed.
Forgive me that cannot say, ""Tis best"

thoughtful mood at once. Continuing
the subject Il speaker volunteered the,
information, ''Inere is one objection
however, to playing poker with girls,
and that is they don't want to pay when
they lose, but give l. o. US. Should
any of the male members of the party be
caught with poor hand he has to put
up cash against credit, and the girls are
good collectors" With a desire tore

Globe representative pursued -hisain-
veStigatioAs until finally he encountered
young boarding school miss just home
for vacation. Eyes, indeed, we played
poker at school. although that was the
only game with cards prohibited. All
the lights in our rooms must be eXtin
guished at 0 O'Clock, and we used to
have some very narrow escapes from
being detected betting on the strength
OF our hands. Two pairs and threeS
were not thought much Of and the pots
were usually very small when hands of
this kind were out. But we did take a
pride in Jack pots, because many
of the girls had brothers and
beaux named John, and there were
some lively times before such contest
would be decided. Some of the more
daring spirits tried cigarette smoking
a majority of them succeeded in over
coming their dislike for tobacco, but l
was not one of these fortunate sisters.
Then, too, we had drinks at the table
and they were obtained thus: Accord
ing to the rules of the institution that |
attended liquor for medicinal purposes
was allowed the scholars. and many of
them would show sickness to obtain
glass of wine or bottle of beer. These
luXuries were carefully boarded until
some night when there was to be lodge
of sorrow, for such was the title of the
invitations to apOker party and when all
was in readiness, with friendly
blanket or spread over the windows and
cracks of the doors, the fun would begin.
It was an unusual sight for a party of
five to be diligently studying their
hands as late as o'clock in the morn
ing, and the effects were plainly visible
when that horrid rising bell was tolled
